Carreg Pumsaint
Date Added: 19th Feb 2015
Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: Wales (Carmarthenshire)
Visited: Yes on 16th Feb 2015
Carreg Pumsaint submitted by SandyG on 16th Feb 2015. This a mortar stone used to mechanically crush gold ore. The stone was laid horizontally on the ground. The ore was placed on the stone and crushed by mechanically driven stamps. The continual pounding of the stamps resulted in the formation of distinctive small saucer shaped hollows. When one side was worn the mortar stone was turned over and the process started again.

It is always difficult to establish whether a line of boulders were deliberately placed or are instead the result of glacial or periglacial activity. Generally there must be a presumption in favour of natural origin, but occasionally some detail may hint at the possibility of human intervention. At Carreg Cadno a number of the boulders have been propped into position indicating that this site has been deliberately fashioned. What is less clear is whether this happened in prehistoric times. On balance the possibility of this feature being a form of prehistoric stone row remains the most likely explanation.

Carn Euny Fogou submitted by AngieLake on 2nd Jan 2005. This shot shows the huge but low (4.5ft - 1.4m) SE-facing doorway of the Carn Euny 'Beehive Hut' underground chamber, with its own short passage leading into the fogou passage which runs SW/NE, (but snaking here with a flatter, more W/E run), just outside the doorway.

It is possible that the sun was meant to shine down t...
